The first time I ever heard of a Parachute festival, there was no mention of it being a christian music festival. I asked if we had to bring our own canopies, were there repacking facilities on site, and what sort of jump planes were being used.
I am still waiting for the answers.![]()
Time to ride
What's the lineup this year? I wish I'd gone to see Anberlin, Day of Fire, Pillar, Thousand Foot Krutch over the past few years, as they seem to be too busy nowadays as they've got new albums to promote![]()

Does anyone know why it's called the 'Parachute' Festival ?
Whats the significance or symbolism behind 'parachute?'
Dont know much about it - just keen to know...
I'm not too sure.. but I've heard a couple of theories:
1: Some one parachuted into the first one
2: The first one was held under a parachute for a canopy
whether either one of those are true or not I have no idea
Oh, I think I've seen Jase a few times... not sure though![]()
The good things are always true eh... hehe

Or could it be that Jesus is your Parachute ?? .. i was always under the impression that the Parachute festival was a thinly disguised Christian recruitment drive.
But please ... correct me if I'm wrong![]()
There's an idea - make up some bumper stickers saying "Jesus is my parachute" and sell them on the gate. You'd make a fortune!
BTW - I want a cut thanks. Idea's like this dont just fall out of the sky.
Parachute is the name of a Christian music label.
It's their festival.
It's called the Parachute Festival.
Tada!
